The AIU Apprenticeship offers high school students opportunities to explore different international careers, through seminars featuring speakers in different fields, foreign policy scenarios, and other interactive exercises. Through the program, students can develop their long term professional goals, and become more engaged in global issues that interest them.
From October 2009 - January 2010, 45 apprentices participated in five sessions at the Allegheny Intermediate Unit, in Homestead, PA:
Friday, October 16, 2009

At the end of the AIU International Affairs Apprenticeship, the students completed personal, reflective, mosaic projects, depicting their interests. They were allowed freedom to express themselves through videos, PowerPoint presentations, short stories, photo collages, poems, newsletters, etc. Drawing on their personal background and inspirations, issues of interest and concern, and their educational experience, apprentices reflected on how they formed their career goals, and how they plan to achieve them.
